Interesting Camera "Boom" Device : Rodcam

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I found this new camera support device , the Rodcam to be very interesting.  Kind of like a boom with extreme reach. I wonder if it would have any use for flying a mic in large sets and spaces... who knows?

 

Anyhow, enjoy the video demo on this page :

Cheers Everyone,

What happens when more than one bright spark decides to hang their GoPro over the carnival float?    Cameras smashing into moving vehicles and people?  

Will this end up like concerts, where you can't see the action because everyone is holding up their phone to record it - now the air is filled with smoothly panning action shots?

no doubt I'm going to see one of these devices sooner,rather than later. I think it's a very clever idea. their site states clearly that it's for GoPros and that ilk. I noticed on one clip that they had used the onboard GoPro sound (I'm guessing). You probably could use it for a mic. Innovation is good. Duelling Rodcams: fun times!
